- * access_tracking_perf_test
- *
- * Copyright (C) 2021, Google, Inc.
- *
- * This test measures the performance effects of KVM's access tracking.
- * Access tracking is driven by the MMU notifiers test_young, clear_young, and
- * clear_flush_young. These notifiers do not have a direct userspace API,
- * however the clear_young notifier can be triggered by marking a pages as idle
- * in /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap. This test leverages that mechanism to
- * enable access tracking on guest memory.
- *
- * To measure performance this test runs a VM with a configurable number of
- * vCPUs that each touch every page in disjoint regions of memory. Performance
- * is measured in the time it takes all vCPUs to finish touching their
- * predefined region.
- *
- * Note that a deterministic correctness test of access tracking is not possible
- * by using page_idle as it exists today. This is for a few reasons:
- *
- * 1. page_idle only issues clear_young notifiers, which lack a TLB flush. This
- * means subsequent guest accesses are not guaranteed to see page table
- * updates made by KVM until some time in the future.
- *
- * 2. page_idle only operates on LRU pages. Newly allocated pages are not
- * immediately allocated to LRU lists. Instead they are held in a "pagevec",
- * which is drained to LRU lists some time in the future. There is no
- * userspace API to force this drain to occur.
- *
- * These limitations are worked around in this test by using a large enough
- * region of memory for each vCPU such that the number of translations cached in
- * the TLB and the number of pages held in pagevecs are a small fraction of the
- * overall workload. And if either of those conditions are not true (for example
- * in nesting, where TLB size is unlimited) this test will print a warning
- * rather than silently passing.
